How many people yawned when Michael Savage (Weiner) was banned from Great Britain? The British government has left it to the imagination as to what this radio pundit has done or said that requires his prohibition from their beloved isle.

From what I remember of the episode, he is guilty of unspecific, inflammatory hate speech.

I dunno if that is better or worse.
